What happens when a pie-in-the-sky liberal, prattling on about social justice and all that sort of thing, actually gets challenged by someone who knows what he's talking about and knows how to ask the right questions in the right way? This. You can't help but feel badly for Keely Mullen. I know, she's asking for it by advocating such insanity and you've got to be ready to rumble when you go into the public square. But it's hard to watch anyone get humiliated this badly and not want to just tell the referee to stop the fight.
You have to watch, though, because Cavuto really lays bare just how vapid the whole 1-percent-can-pay-for-everything nonsense really is
The key to the whole thing is when Cavuto informs her that if you taxed the entire "1 percent" at 100 percent, all you would get is $1 trillion, which isn't even enough to fund Medicaid for three years. Her response: "I just don't believe that." Of course she doesn't. Because she can't believe it. If she realizes there are limits to what you can confiscate from other people for the purpose of giving free goodies to everyone else, then her whole concept of the world is left in tatters - not unlike her until a technical glitch mercifully ends the interview.
